Savanna Song

He went to Kenya because everything else had fallen apart.
He never expected what he’d carry home with him.

Jihyun arrives in the Masai Mara carrying more than just a suitcase. Still reeling from a relationship that left him questioning everything, he’s not looking for connection – only distance, space, and time to heal.

Jungwoo has built a quiet life for himself at the safari camp, far from the life he once knew in Seoul. Stranded by circumstance, he’s stayed by choice, finding peace in the rhythm of the land and the simplicity of a life that asks nothing more of him than to exist.

When their paths cross, something shifts.

What begins as a fleeting encounter becomes something deeper – something neither of them is prepared for. In a place defined by vast horizons and unspoken truths, they begin to confront the parts of themselves they’ve been trying to outrun.

But healing is never simple.
And love, when it is real, asks more of us than we ever expect.

Set between the breathtaking backdrop of the Masai Mara and the glittering lights of Seoul, Savanna Song is an emotionally rich LGBTQ+ romance about healing, belonging, and the quiet moments that change everything.
